THROWN OUT.
An ex-CathoIic Priest Endeavors to Ke.
cover Damages.
BOSTON. Jan. 7,

BOsTON, Jan. Z.
peculiar case WAS begun in the superior
court this afternoon, it being the suit of
Maurice S. Fitzgerald, Catholic clergyman
against Archbishop Williams to recover dam
ages for being, as he claimed, wronzfully de,
posed from the position as priest OF the Cath
olic church. In 1888 or 1884, it is claimed,
the archbishop heard rumors affecting the
moral character of the plaintiff. He sent
for the plaintiff, who at first denied the
charges. but finally, it is said, confessed to
the archbishop all that he had done. The
archbishop ordered Fitzgerald to seclusion
and meditation. and subsequently the latter
declined to obey his excentrlcal superior.
Then followed his removal and dismissal from
the priesthood, the bringing of this action
and denial OF the alleged confession of the
plaintiff. r NJ. Morse, Jr., John NJ. Tuohay,
ex Gov. Castor, and Chas. F. Donnelly ap-
peared Tor the archbishop. The case at
tracts much attention and the trial will
probably be a protracted one.

cumstances they would again know them.
Joe Dorsey, colored, swore that horses he
thought he knew as Mr.. Waters passed him
on Spalding street and Mr.. 1. ID. Kaiser
swore that the same gentleEnan's horses

Several other witnesses were examined,
among them, Messrs. Joe +. Neal, William
C. Drury, Harry Spalding, DH- John T.
Spalding and Billopp aud John Rustin-
The gist of their testimony Is incorporated
above. Mr.. Spalding testified that he was
told before the jail was assaulted that it
was TO be dome. but refused 10 give the
name Of his informant for fear of criminal
ing him. He was committed to the custody
Of the Sheriff, until the jury was discharg-
ed, after which, he could no longer be held.
Mr.. 5. has since, we hear, expressed will
ingness 70 give the name Of his informant
who merely told him that he thought the
lynchers were coming. DIR. Billopp's testi-
mony was unimportant The doctor said,
in substance, that he was returning from
the Head cf the Bay when he heard the
tramp of horses coming down the ST. 10
seph's road and kept a lookout to see what
was going ON.

destination and sent Mr.. John Dawson to
notify the proper authorities.
Messrs. Clarence Drury and Francis
King carried the notification TO Sheriff
Greenwelrs residence that the prisoner had
been taken from the Jail.
The BEACON of the 2n3 instant con-
tains the following account of the crime
which cost Hance his life:
Friday night, the 27th ultimo, Benjamin
! Hance, colored, was committed to our
county Jail on warrant of Justice John C..
Hurry, charged with an attempt To COM
init felonious assault upon the person of
Miss Alice Bailey. The prisoner, it ap-
pears, met the girl on the road leading to
Stones wharf, asked her the way to the
landing and then made indecent proposals
TO her. The girl started 10 run and IIance
ran after, caught her and threw her down,
but owing TO her screams and desperate
resistance he failed TO accomplish his
purpose. There is considerable excite
ment over the affair, and we hope for the
county's sake that the offender will be Civ
en- speedy trial and, if convicted, be
promptly punished. The young lady is
a daughter Of Sherkliff Bailey, worthy
farmer of the st. Joseph's section. The
scene of the attempted outrage was near
Mr.. John V. Camalier's gate.
